ST Mary’s Church, Lifton, held its bi-annual Christmas Tree Festival over the weekend of Saturday, November 30, to Sunday, December 1, with the theme this year being ‘Planet Earth’.

Trees were decorated either around a country or with the environment in mind, and several trees were decorated with plastics or with natural fabrics. The weekend concluded with a concert on the Sunday afternoon by the Lifton Singers.

Almost £300 was raised for the church. The churchwardens expressed their thanks to all those who contributed to the event.
